Move over Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj has a new arch-nemesis.
After settling her feud with Swift at the beginning of Sunday night’s
MTV VMAs, Minaj punctuated her bizarre acceptance speech for Best Hip
Hop VIdeo with a slam of host Miley Cyrus.

“Back to this b---- that had a lot to say about me the other
day in the
press, Miley, what’s good,” Minaj said after accepting the Moonman
trophy for her hit, "Anaconda," glaring across the stage.
Cyrus, who had recently slammed Minaj in a New York Times interview, tried to take the high road.
“Hey we all are in this industry, we all do interviews and we all know how they manipulate,” she said. “Nicki congratulations.”

Ironically, Minaj’s salvo on a new front came a half hour after she
publicly buried the hatchet on her social media spat with Swift, by
dueting with the pop singer to open the VMAs.
What apparently set Minaj off this time was Cyrus’ interview in the
Sunday edition of the New York Times, in which the “Wrecking Ball”
singer weighed in on the hip hop star’s feud with Swift.
“What I read sounded very Nicki Minaj, which, if you know Nicki Minaj
is not too kind,” Cyrus told the Times. “It’s not very polite. I think
there’s a way you speak to people with openness and love. You don’t have
to start this pop star against pop star war.
“It became Nicki Minaj and Taylor in a fight, so now the story isn’t even on what you wanted it to be about.”
Anticipating more shade, producers cut Minaj’s mic before her anti-Miley rant could get even more heated.
